dont i do this every wednesday?

ok, so hung over, on 3 hours of sleep.
do this way too often.

the day began with a discussion about those yellow rubber-band bracelet things that i've seen soooooooooooooooo many people wearing about town, in the papers, all over. i recall inquiring about such a bracelet last night at the break night at snapshot (a HUGE success i might add). so i remember asking this dude what it was and why everyone had one...but in my silly inebriation i forgot his response. i was quickly reminded this morning when i was dizzily flipping through the post looking at the "tempo" section where this actress was wearing THE BRACELET. hence the conversation that led to such things as rainbowflage...camouflage in rainbow colors (a nice art project that kept me busy all day).

so i concluded that this new yellow bracelet has replaced the red kabbalah string as the limited edition fashion trend that sweeps the likes of hollywood socialites, celebrities, and new york hopefuls. the kids today are wearing them everywhere...i mean, i see them on the streets, in the bars, on the train, everywhere.

so i got one.

actually, the co-worker with whom i shared this conversation was so interested in what exactly it was that i did a small amount of research to find that these bracelets are actually worn in support of Lance Armstrong while he rides the tour de france and more importantly in support of cancer...
that being revealed, he decided to go out and get one for everyone in the office.

so now i am a victim of the limited edition fashion trend that is sweeping this nation and the society that runs it.

fashion trend or charity?
